"There's no one here to fight now, there's nothing here to flee"

Writer's group was interesting. It's once a month, like my library group, at the local Barnes and Nobles. It's led by a category romance novel writer who also worked for the local major publishing company and now does... something.. for B&N. I have it on a business card. And the cool part is that appaently there's going to be a monthly drawing for books. Random books about writing and stuff. Looks like a great deal of fun. And even a little informative, the first meeting was mostly about objectives and lectures, but the next several look like they're going to cover some topics I could use work on. Pacing, for one thing.

Kingdom Hospital was... still weird. No really overt Dark Tower references anymore, although there was something about Beetle Bailey that tickled my memory. I can't think what it might refer to, though. The animals were talking again. The anteater did not say "Ants-olutely." It did other things I won't spoil for you yet. Oh yeah. And there was the phrase "the Emperor of Ice Cream" that somehow reminded me of a combination of my Billy the Nightmare Prince and the Crimson King. So I'm not sure what that's about. Still intrigued enough to watch it. If only to find out what the hell is going on with Dr. ... James. I think. The weird one with the thumb and finger gestures. You'll know what I mean if you've seen the show, if not I won't spoil it for you.

Marathon editing session on Different tomorrow. I'm only on 3 hours out of 100. Feh.


I hadn't realized that we have a preponderance of telepaths and other similarly talented people in my head. Granted, that's fairly predictable from the amount of Weird Shit I write. Weird Shit being for a value of fantasy, science fiction, magical realism, horror, etc. But still. Huh.

Having Draco in my head is doing interesting things to everyone. Especially since he decided to be more vocal and wander around in a strop about how his life is ruined because of Mudbloods like HPRowan and traitors like Snape and all that. And in doing so he sounds remarkably like Griffin. Which is strange. And, predictably, HPRowan wants to hug him too, although she trusts Snape intrinsically and trusts him to handle the Malfoy child. And she wants to go on holiday and forget that anymost of the last twenty-plus years have happened.

The Sorcerer's mucking about with Nate Grey (apparently now called Mike) from X-Men trying to figure out a safe way to destroy the One Ring. theatrical_muse amuses me.

And Kate's finally managed to talk some sense into Rowan, at least. Although Juli's just feeling very hopeless and guilty right about now. But... I have no idea what's going to happen now. It's more than a little worrying. At least the Sebastians are all right. I'm beginning to think we should have just kept all four of them... er, that is, the witches and Sebastian!Fic... together just in case. Oh well.


Mm. I think I'll make an effort to actually go to bed sometime at a decent hour tonight. For a variable value of decent hour. Dammit, Hat, that phrase has infected my brain! :)
